Planning & Consultancy

Changes to control centres, control rooms or control stations require an integrated approach covering all individual trades. Knürr offers bespoke planning services for safe, efficient and future-proof 24/7 working environments.

Whether you need comprehensive planning or targeted advice in specific areas, we support your project with specialist industry expertise and a clear understanding of technology, processes and 24/7 operations.

Analysis & Requirements Definition

The basis for successful control centre planning

Every project begins with a comprehensive analysis of the current situation and future requirements. Working closely with the client’s specialist departments, we define objectives, work processes and technical parameters.

  • In doing so, we focus in particular on:

  • Work processes and communication structures

  • Existing IT and network infrastructure

  • Visualisation and information display

  • Availability and redundancy requirements

  • Ergonomic requirements for operators

The results of this analysis form the basis for further planning and help to identify potential for optimisation at an early stage. A thorough needs analysis is crucial for a sustainable and efficient control centre solution.

IT, KVM and network technology

The technological foundation of modern control rooms

An efficient control room relies on a stable and secure IT architecture. That is why we integrate the entire technological infrastructure into our planning right from the start.

  • Our services include:

  • Planning of KVM infrastructure for centralised control

  • Design of high-performance IP networks

  • Integration of server and computer outsourcing

  • Planning of redundant and high-availability system architectures

  • Interface planning between IT systems and visualisation

Structured planning of the network, cabling and infrastructure results in a future-proof system with clearly defined interfaces and maximum operational reliability.

Concept development for human-machine interfaces (HMI)

Efficient working environments for critical processes

Based on this analysis, we develop a comprehensive concept for your control room. In doing so, we take into account not only technical requirements but also ergonomic and architectural aspects.

  • Our concept covers all relevant HMI aspects:

  • Technology integration and monitoring

  • Intuitive operating concepts using state-of-the-art technology

  • Room layout, workstation structure and sightlines

  • Lighting, acoustics and air conditioning

  • Ergonomic design of workstations

The combination of technology, spatial planning and ergonomics creates optimal conditions for highly efficient working – particularly in 24/7 operating environments.

3D visualisation & simulation

Bringing planning to life

Modern planning means being able to present projects realistically in graphic form even before they are implemented. With the help of photorealistic 3D visualisations and true-to-scale room representations, future control rooms can be assessed and optimised at an early stage.

  • Our clients receive:

  • Realistic room and workplace visualisations

  • Simulation of sightlines and operating concepts

  • Representation of existing technical infrastructure

  • Planning certainty for architecture and engineering

These important details enable decisions to be made more quickly and significantly reduce planning risks.

Detailed planning & technical documentation

Planning certainty down to the last detail

During the detailed planning phase, the concept is fully developed from a technical perspective. All components, systems and interfaces are precisely documented.

  • This includes, amongst other things:

  • IT circuit diagrams and system architecture

  • Cable routing and infrastructure planning

  • Rack and equipment room planning

  • Integration of KVM, visualisation and network systems

  • Technical project documentation

This detailed planning ensures maximum transparency and forms the basis for the smooth implementation of the project.

Project support & implementation

From planning to the completed control centre

We also support our clients as a technical partner throughout the implementation phase. By working closely with all project stakeholders, we ensure that the architecture, engineering and IT infrastructure work together seamlessly.

  • Our services include:

  • Technical project coordination

  • Coordination with architectural and construction planning

  • Integration of IT and network systems

  • Support with commissioning and optimisation

The result is a future-proof control centre that meets the highest standards of efficiency, ergonomics and availability.
